Flyers 29 PP's to the Pens 22 PP's in the season series. Pretty baseless argument if you ask me.

A win against the Pens without Sid, Geno and/or Fleury will be tainted. If we want to win the Cup. We have to beat this team at its best.

It will also give this team tons of confidence moving to the next round if they are fortunate........and not completely physically and mentally drained

Should be a great series. Hopefully it will have fans wanting more each game.

I love that so many of you are wishing injuries, that's how you know someone is worried. I can smell the fear from here.

The thing is, the Flyers can win without hurting anyone, why not cheer for that?



sorry Roos- I messed up yous post with my new superpowers. My bad.

With this Flyers team, I think it can only give them momentum. I would be surprised if they could get mentally drained. Some much grit and desire on this team plus some guys that have their name on the Cup already (Jagr, Talbot, Lilja) and a handful of guys that played against the Hawks (Giroux, Hartnell, Timonen, etc.) that will keep the energy level high for the Rookies upon advancing.

Bad Blood... What can I say. When your team takes runs at guys in the last minute of a game that is over... and when there are 2 knee to knee collisions in the last 3 games of the reg season against 2 possible playoff opponents... dont be suprised when the other fan base wants you to get injured too.

Danny Briere, who missed the last three games of the regular season after absorbing a Joe Vitale hit in Pittsburgh on April 1, was skating with Brayden Schenn and Wayne Simmonds on Tuesday. A bit of change for Briere, who returned to practice Monday and skated with Schenn and Jakub Voracek. The last Briere update on the Flyers' media web site was an April 6 entry indicating a back injury with his status being indefinite. Certainly, all signs are encourgaing the last couple of days.

5 Questions for everyone:

1. Who will be the MVP in the series for PHI?

2. Who will be the MVP in the series for PIT?

3. Who is the X-factor for both teams?

4. Which coach will have the upper hand?

5. Who wins if it goes to 7?
